Could you build this?

No A real stablecoin protocol requires security-critical smart contracts, economic and mechanism design for peg stability, and formal audits, which a vibe-coded prototype cannot substitute for.

What it would actually take: A production version needs Solidity or Vyper contracts for reserve splitting, minting and fusion logic, plus oracle integration for pegging to external assets. The hard parts are the economic model that keeps the neutron and proton tokens solvent under stress and the security review of contracts that would hold real funds. That requires experienced DeFi protocol engineers, mechanism designers, and multiple independent audits.
